Former Norwegian national soccer player Marcus Pedersen scored a curious goal.

The striker of the second division Hamarkameratene scored the 2-1 winner in the game at Grorud IL - with an ankle cuff on his left leg.

The 30-year-old is currently serving a 24-day prison sentence for driving a car with 2.26 per mille in his blood in April.

Pedersen is allowed to serve the sentence at home, but has to wear an ankle cuff and is only allowed out to do his job.

However, Pedersen did not want to talk about his experiences with the ankle cuff afterwards.

"Everyone who wrote me off should see that they were wrong," said the nine-time international who scored an international goal.

Pedersen has struggled with many serious injuries, but most recently scored nine goals in 15 games for HamKam.
